Hi there! My name is Evan and I’m a graphic designer currently interning at Koto in New York City. I’m also a runner, a gamer, an urban-planning enthusiast, and community builder passionate about bringing people together. Before finding my calling in design, I spent eight years working as an intelligence analyst in Washington DC while serving in the US Air Force and as a civilian.

Since pivoting to design, I've found my love for visuals, technology, and diplomacy to be my superpower. I enjoy telling the story behind design decisions, breaking down how systems work, and using my diplomatic skills to make things clear and engaging. While studying, I spent four months working on branding projects for clients at the design studio Sunday Afternoon, which solidified my passion for branding, design systems, and storytelling.

I'm focused on creating beautiful branded experiences, with a touch of motion design whenever I can. I'm excited to share my journey and work with you on your next project!
